Report of the Deputy Chief Executive (Corporate Direction).

The updated travel and subsistence policy following the review was presented to the committee. Whilst generally supportive of the recommendations, members highlighted the parking problems around the Hub and referred to paragraph 3.5 of the report which mentioned concerns of Unison with regard to staff car parking arrangements and the referral of the matter for consideration of the matter by the Strategic Leadership Board. Members requested that the relevant ward councillors be updated on the outcome of that referral when complete. It was also requested that staff and partners in the Hub be regularly reminded of the impact of on-street parking on residents and asked to park considerately.

It was moved by Councillor Cartwright, seconded by Councillor Witherford and

RESOLVED –

(a)          the outcome of the travel review be noted and the revised policy be approved;

(b)          ward councillors be informed of the outcome of the Strategic Leadership Board’s consideration of car parking arrangements and staff be reminded of impact on residents of inconsiderate parking.
